Virginia Democrats vying for the U.S. House outraise Republicans..
All four Democratic candidates vying for competitive U.S. House seats in Virginia outraised their Republican counterparts in the latest fundraising period and had more cash on hand going into the final weeks of the midterm elections.
The Virginia numbers are in keeping with national trends as Democrats try to capitalize on President Trump’s unpopularity in suburban districts to take control of the House of Representatives.
Comstock-Wexton
Of the four Virginia races, TV advertising is most expensive in Northern Virginia’s 10th Congressional District, where Rep. Barbara Comstock (R) is working to defend her seat against a challenge from state Sen. Jennifer T. Wexton (D-Loudoun.)
Former FBI director James B. Comey and his wife, Patrice, are among Wexton’s notable donors. Both gave her campaign the maximum possible donation of $2,700. They previously gave to Republicans exclusively, including to Mitt Romney for his presidential campaign, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics.
Me, 2016: I hope Comey's actions don't make a difference to the election
Me, 2018: Thanks Comey! Your actions will make a difference to the election
too bad the maximum donation one can do to super PACs is not equally 2700$ think of how fewer dollars we the people would have to shell out if that were the case.
